Naramata

Farms & Markets

Fresh produce

Naramata was founded in 1907 as a haven for gentlemen fruit farmers.

Developer JM Robinson knew the sunny western facing slopes, fertile soil and available water would make ideal conditions for growing soft fruits like cherries and peaches along with the apples and pears that were already flourishing farther north in the valley.

Orchards to Vineyards

For generations, spring saw the hillsides from Naramata to Penticton burst into exuberant bloom. The face of farming has changed over recent years with many orchards giving way to the vineyards of the Naramata Bench wine region, but the earth's abundance remains undiminished.

Farm Fresh

Drive along Naramata Road and keep an eye open for farm-gate produce. The harvest begins in mid-July when apricots ripen and lasts through the succession of cherries, peaches, pears, plums and apples to mid-October.

Pack a Picnic

DIY gourmets go for one-stop convenience at Spiller's Corner Fruit Stand at the south end of the Naramata Bench, and the Naramata Community Market, summer Wednesdays from 4pm to 7pm at Wharf Park.

Naramata Cheese Makers

See cheese makers in action through a viewing window in the tasting room of Poplar Grove Winery. Sample Okanagan Double Cream Camembert, Harvest Moon washed rind cheese and Tiger Blue. Ask for suggestions on wine pairings and put together a made in Naramata picnic lunch.

Lavender Farm

Lavender is a smart plant. It loves the Okanagan climate. See fields of this fragrant flower in bloom at Forest Green Man Lavender. Buy fresh-cut or dried flowers and lavender products. Seasonal fruits and vegetables include Russian red garlic, heirloom tomatoes, peppers and Balaton sour cherries. The shop also features works by local artisans.

Open Wednesday to Monday from June through September and by appointment off-season.
